Tactical Dress Shoes???

[gvsugod]

Is there such a thing? I need some new dress shoes for work.

I guess when I say tactical I mean waterproof(?) and super comfy for a get home situation if I need to walk. I dont know, but INGO seems to have all sorts of weird ideas and products.

And before you say it, boots in the car isnt an option for now, I do not drive to work.

I dont mind spending money for my feet, its one thing I normally dont skimp on. So feel free to recommend to my hearts content.

Lace up leather wingtips with rubber soles are comfy for walking. Rockports. Oxfords.
Not any more waterproof than any other leather shoe though.

Guess it depends on how "tactical" you want to get and how dressy you want to remain.

Ya I know all about Rockports and Oxfords, sold suits and other mens clothing for a while. DIdnt know if there was some secret brand that I needed to wear to compliment my AR and BOB.

Magnum "Active duty" shoes.

Have you looked into a comfy boot? Bates makes some boots that can be worn for long periods of time that are comfy,... And if you buy some Leather Luster and apply it correctly, no one will have better looking shoes

I need to be kinda dressy, and I like the idea of a low boot that way I can carry a boot knife. Not supposed to have any weapons on me in the office, condition of employment.

Those magnum active duty look nice though.

What sorta budget are you talking?

Red Wing's Heritage line has some nice looking shoes that would do ok dressed up.. http://www.redwingheritage.com/boots/#&f=

Or something from the Wolverine 1000 mile collection Wolverine 1000 Mile Vintage Boots and Shoes - Collection Home

Those should last a lot longer than your regular Rockports, etc.

Dont know what my budget is. I dont tend to skimp on shoes/boots. Id still like to be under $200.

Oh, and they need to be black, my brown shoes are still in good condition.

Dr Martens GILBERTO BLACK SILHOUETTE - Doc Martens Boots and Shoes

Something like that should be tough as nails and comfy. Dr. Marten has more in that "Refined" line that would be appropriate, but they've just clearanced them out it looks like and there's not much left.
